The Citroen 2CV is obviously an automotive icon, but the status of the little French car is certainly now owed to aggression. In fact, this puppy is anything but mean. Well, all that is about to change, as a customization shop is working to turn the 2CV into a rat rod.
As you can notice in one of the two images above, the work has already kicked off, even though there are still steps to be completed - check out the second image, which is the sketch of the project and you'll get an idea of how the finished product should look like.
One of the best parts of the process involves the engine that will get to occupy the nose of the contraption and that's because this Citroen is set to receive a V8.
You should know we'll continue to keep an eye on this mechanical monster and return with fresh news as soon as wet get our keyboards on it.
Danton Arts Kustoms is the shop behind the build and while the idea of such a 2CV might seem like an outlandish proposal, the perspective changes if we check out the previous projects delivered by the French specialist.
Alexandre Danton, the artist behind the label, has a thing for playing with poster cars. And perhaps the wackiest build delivered to date involves a Lamborghini Espada.
The Italian Grand Tourer is still animated by a Lamborghini V12, but the engine now sits in an open compartment, with the Sant'Agata Bolognese machine having also being taken down the Rat Rod route.
Then we have the Porsches the shop put together - we're talking about a pair of air-cooled Neunelfers that have lost their flat-sixes. You see, these Zuffenhausen toys are now animated by V8 units (one of them comes from a Bentley), which have been placed where the luggage compartment used to be. That's right, this is a purist's nightmare.
